I put the TikTok clip out yesterday as a bit of fun showing different languages' use of initial "ng" – Vietnamese, Thai, and Indonesian – but actually, it's a feature in many languages in this part of the world: Cantonese, Khmer, Thai, Lao, Indonesian, Malay, Tagalog, and many Austronesian languages like Tongan, Samoan, and Maori. This is one sound you can't fudge and hope you'll get away with it. In this clip, I go through how to gradually build the muscles up to be able to take control of your tongue and your throat and finally pronounce the initial "ng" correctly.

Also, for anyone who wants to send a voice sample as mentioned in the clip to be analysed in a future clip, PM me.
